Hi,
Mayor Bloomberg and Chancellor Klein plan to expand standardized testing to
students in kindergarten through second grade.
During this period of tight budgets and reductions, it would be a waste of
money and resources to spend millions of dollars on a testing policy that the
research and education communities nearly unanimously decry as unreliable and
potentially harmful to children.
Can you help out by signing the UFT's petition? It's really easy - just click

Thanks!
